4022 Misunderstanding, misunderstanding.
Seeing Gu Buzhi accept it so graciously, the crowd was a little uncomfortable.
It was already a high price for a high grade Emperor Nirvana pill to be able to buy twenty thousand five colored spirit stones. Since alchemy Saint Gu wanted to help someone, he should at least give up a bit of the price. Why did he accept it just like that? Even if he was greedy for money, there was no need for an alchemy Saint to be greedy for a mere tens of thousands of five-colored spirit stones. Besides, alchemy Saint Gu was not such a person in the rumors.
Seeing si kouye take out 50000 five-colored spiritual stones, Ling Yitong became even more nervous, and her palms were sweating. Her Grandmaster trusted her so much. If she succeeded, it would be fine, but if she failed, not only would she lose face, but she would also lose the face of her Grandmaster.
Ling Yixin and the others did not know about Ling Yitong’s nervousness. They looked at her with admiration and envy. This was a good opportunity to make a name for herself. It was not hard to imagine that the name of Ling Yitong, The Alchemist master of the Ling family, would be known all over the Qing-Yun realm. Even they would feel proud of her.
The surrounding crowd was also looking at Ling Yitong with anticipation. They also wanted to see what kind of spiritual pill the young Alchemist, who had such high hopes placed on by alchemy Saint Gu, would refine this time. Would it be a level higher and refine a special grade Nirvana Emperor pill?
Ling Yitong could feel their admiring, envious, or expectant gazes. She became even more nervous, and her fingers were trembling.
“Alright, Chuxi. You should have the spiritual herbs already. Don’t make everyone wait too long. Get ready to start refining the pills.” At this moment, Gu Buzhi said something that confused everyone.
“What? Chuxi? he’s calling that Ling Chuxi, not Ling Yitong? Could he have called the wrong person? Or did I hear it wrong?” Everyone looked at Gu Buzhi in confusion.
Before this, they had all thought that the junior Gu Buzhi was talking about was his grand-disciple Ling Yitong. After all, they had seen the alchemy skills of the Ling Yi pill and it was indeed very brilliant. However, they had never expected that the person he called out was the pavilion master of the pill Heart Pavilion, Ling Chuxi.
They had all seen Ling Chuxi’s cultivation before. She was a dual cultivator of martial arts and magic. Even the Huang family’s young master, who was a late stage Emperor level master, could not fight back against her. Her strength was without a doubt. In their opinion, this was most likely the reason why the pillheart Pavilion had chosen her as the pavilion master. In any case, the pill Heart Pavilion had alchemy Saint Gu’s support and its own outstanding spirit alchemists. It was reasonable for them to choose an expert who cultivated both martial arts and magic to become the pavilion master and not be threatened by the other pill houses.
Of course, perhaps Ling Chuxi knew a little about alchemy. However, she had cultivated both martial arts and magic. Both of them had reached the late stage of the Emperor level. Even if she knew a little about alchemy, how could she be better than Ling Yitong?
Ling Yitong felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She stood there, dumbfounded. She had been feeling conflicted, nervous, and excited in her heart. She was certain that Gu Buzhi had asked her to refine pills for si kouye, but in the end, Gu Buzhi had asked Ling Chuxi to refine pills for si kouye as if it was only natural! Ling Yitong could not understand the situation at all. Who could understand the difference in her mental state?
Even Ling Yixin and the others could not understand. They understood a little more now. They all thought that Ling Chuxi was able to become the pavilion master of the pill Heart Pavilion because of Dongfang Yunhui’s care. They had never thought that she would also know how to refine pills.
What a joke. Ling Yitong’s talent was outstanding, and she had cultivated for ten years before she had the alchemy skills she had today. Ling Chuxi was in the late stage of the Emperor level, cultivating both martial arts and magic. How much time and effort would that take? to say that her alchemy skills were better than Ling Yitong ‘s, was that even possible?
